HeliCops

Take to the skies in another helicopter action top down shooter, funny thing is it seems your defending your city but the buildings seem to have turrets and men with bazookas trying to take you down. The game play is fun especially the controls, WASD enables you to move in compass directions while the left and right arrow key allow you to turn. The top arrow key allows you to shoot and shift cycles through weapons, though I personally would have preferred the number keys for the weapons but its cool, space or EMP allows you to freeze time, strange not exactly what EMP really does. The game play is extremely easy, yes this game is easy, I managed to take on the boss and lost only 1 health with a turret shot, finished the game without maxing out health, emp and flame thrower so it could have been made a couple of notches tougher but definitely is worth a go. The quirks in between levels are funny, though I wish the guys at Armor games had spent more time making the game with more levels

Dr Stone Age

Another puzzle that plays with physics and the use of objects for you to well, hit the boar. Lets start with whats different with Dr. Stone Age, you have a huge amount of levels yes 100 levels but theres at least 50 that can be played without paying woohoo! That include three tutorials but the downside to it is if you fail a level you cant go back and try it.

There are a couple of buttons that pop up after you place a ramp, arrows that allow you to align it as per your need, the red cross is a

Potion Panic 2

After Bloons Tower Defense 4 we have yet another awesome release by Chris. This time its the sequel to Potion Panic, though we don't have the previous version of the game on our blog, its obvious Potion Panic 2 has to be better. The game is like Shore Siege , where you defend you position against the relentless waves of skeletons, slugs, witches, spiders, monster flies, minotaurs and so on and forth. But the essence of the game lies in the combination of potions selected, each potion has a specific amount of power and by increasing the quantity and variety you can create either acids, exploding bombs, stones, fire etc. As you use potions, they tend to get over, you can refill either in game or between levels, the between level refills fill up the entire tank. You can also shop for upgrades, repair the wall that avoids your enemies getting at you or upgrade it and more. Its time for you to come up with your own concoction! Don't forget to save that special combination and use i
